Les derniers nuages s'étirent avant d'aller se cacher derrière les montagnes.
Ils jouent un peu avec les premières taches de soleil, comme des enfants qui ne veulent pas laisser leur terrain de jeu à de nouveaux arrivants.

Early in the morning, the city is slowly awakening.
The last clouds are stretching a last time before going to hide behind the mountains.
They play a little time with the first spots of sunslight, like children that don't want to leave the garden where other kids arrive to play.

Looking to the north, it's difficult to believe that the sea is just there, on the other side, and that you have only to turn your head to the left to discover it.

Quelles sont douces les promenades en ta compagnie... Une île? Voilà bien une chose que je n'aurais pas imaginée...Merci pour ces précisions qui donnent un autre relief aux paysages que tu nous offres!
Bisous
I like these panoramic pictures. It makes the world look a bit smaller.
Nice view!
